On 11/7/2016- per sales representative the facility reported, when the product was initially taken out of the package, the wire felt a little stiff, as if caught on something but then after advanced fine and clinician was able to move forward to access the patient.It was stated that when the clinician advanced the needle, (clearly visualized with ultrasound) and ¿everything seemed normal¿.When the wire was being advanced the clinician stated that something did not feel right, similar to how it might feel if the needle was not in the vessel.The clinician reportedly, stopped the procedure with needle and wire fully deployed inside of vessel.When retracting entire device, the needle came out however the wire was stuck inside of the patient.It was reported that the wire was still connected to the device so the clinician did not move the device any further and called ir to help with retracting wire.Ir pa was able to maneuver the wire and safely pulled the wire out of the patient.Pa commented that the wire did not appear to be in the vessel, suspect maybe in the soft tissue.When viewing the device/wire, it was stated that the main wire remained straight but the coiled wire was extended and bent.Patient was sent to x-ray and confirmed no wire was left in the body.Pa discarded the device and packaging was thrown away.No harm to patient was reported.
